Kapitol announces Cheltenham running order

Sections 3 and 1 will take place on Saturday with Sections 4 and 2 the following day as the running order is amended due to Covid-19 and timing considerations.

Cheltenham
  The running orders have been amended due to ongoing Covid-19 and timing concerns

Kapitol Promotions has announced the running order of the sections of competition at the Cheltenham National Finals in September.

Further updated information will be issued in due course.
